How to book?

NEW TICKETING SYSTEM 2026
To ensure smooth access and prevent the website from becoming overloaded, the online ticket sales this year will operate on a time-slot basis. Once registered, each ticket holder will be allocated a specific time slot in which to make their purchase.

1 – TICKET SALES OPEN, ONLINE WITH DEDICATED BOOKING SLOTS

A two-step process

1 – FROM 24 MARCH, 10AM

REGISTRATION FOR A BOOKING SLOT

This step is essential to access the first phase of ticket sales. Visit festival-avignon.com

2 – 13 TO 18 APRIL

TICKET SALES BY TIME SLOT

A unique access link will be sent by email before the start of the time slot selected during registration. Each booking session lasts 2 hours, to allow for a relaxed booking experience. The same number of tickets is available at the start of each time slot.

Some very small-scale performances (with fewer than 200 seats) will not be available for purchase via the time-slot booking system (La Chartreuse-Cnes de Villeneuve lez Avignon, Jardin de la Vierge du lycée Saint-Joseph, Les Hivernales – CDNC d’Avignon and the Mahabharata – Bar du Festival).

2 – PRE-SALES IN AVIGNON

SATURDAY 11 APRIL

AT LA FABRICA DU FESTIVAL D'AVIGNON
From 9am, numbered tickets will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. This number determines the order in which tickets are collected. The Festival reserves the right to stop distributing tickets depending on the number of people attending. The Festival d’Avignon team will be on hand to offer advice and answer questions. This pre-sale will be preceded by a meeting with Tiago Rodrigues at 10am, focusing on the main themes of the 80th edition’s programme. Priority for the pre-sale will be given to those holding a ticket for the meeting. Free of charge, subject to availability.

Our ticketing service reserves access to one of the different ticketing services for each professional, depending on their profession and structure. Every year we update the list of French and foreign professionals. We invite you to identify the service best suited to your role so that we can process your request more efficiently.

Are you programming at a venue?

You will receive an individual booking from our dedicated service for programmers. By programmers, we mean people working in performing arts organisations who are involved in the programming of their venues (up to a maximum of two people per organisation). This database is compiled by the Festival, with the aim of putting professionals in touch with the artistic teams programmed in order to improve the distribution of their shows. We process the requests and decide on them in order to optimise the presentation of the shows on the programme and to ensure that the organisations are kept up to date with the latest artistic developments. We also encourage the heads of co-producing organisations to come and see the show(s) concerned.

Do you work in a structure with direction functions? Do you work in a public cultural institution ? Do you work in an organisation promoting performing arts ?
